However, he was unable to time the ball perfectly and he rocketed high into the sky. Ingram, who was fielding at mid-wicket, showed sensational fitness to leap in the air and pull back right in front of the boundary line. That was not all as he was losing his balance but he managed to throw the ball to Axar Patel who completed the catch.

Put into bat, Kings XI Punjab scored 163 for 7 with Gayle and Mandeep Singh being the top scorers.

Delhi Capitals skipper Shreyas Iyer won the toss and opted to bowl against Kings XI Punjab.

Punjab made three changes in their playing eleven as Harpreet Brar, Hardus Viljoen and Sam Curran came in for Nicholas Pooran, Mujeeb Ur Rahman and Arshdeep Singh.

On the other hand Delhi also made three changes with Colin Ingram, Sndeep Lamichhane and Sherfane Rutherford replacing Colin Munro, Chris Morris and Keemo Paul.
